Ms. Leezer is a 50 year-old woman with a history of end stage renal disease, status post renal transplant, and a history of coronary artery disease, status post coronary artery bypass grafting. She had an episode of chest pain which was relieved by Nitroglycerin and passed out while saying goodbye to her husband, as well as several episodes of skipped heart beats during and after which she feels short of breath, and slurred speech for a few minutes. On admission her temperature was 98.8, pulse 96, blood pressure 120/70, and respirations 18. During her stay she was given a 250 cc fluid bolus, transfused two units of blood and her hematocrit went up to 31. Laboratory data revealed a sodium of 137, potassium 4.4, chloride 104, bicarbonate 15, BUN 86, creatinine 3.1, ALT 6, AST 11, alkaline phosphatase 44, bilirubin total 0.4, direct bilirubin 0.1, calcium 9.5, cholesterol 360, and HDL 40. An exercise tolerance test MIBI was performed, which was negative for ischemia, and the patient's ejection fraction was approximated to be 69%. Carotid noninvasives revealed moderate internal carotid plaque on the right and mild stenosis of the other arteries. An echocardiogram revealed concentric left ventricular hypertrophy with an ejection fraction of 65%. The patient was taken to Electrophysiology Study which revealed nonsustained ventricular tachycardia with possible right ventricular outflow tract origin. It was hoped that she could be maintained on Lopressor and Verapamil; however, her blood pressure did not tolerate the medication, so she was already on Atenolol for Beta blockade and Verapamil was tried. Her discharge medications included Aspirin 81 mg p.o. q. day, Vitamin C 100 mg p.o. q. day x14 days, Epogen 2,000 subcu q. week, Lasix 60 mg p.o. q. day, Gemfibrozil 300 mg p.o. b.i.d., Lisinopril 5 mg p.o. q. day, Prilosec 20 mg p.o. q. day, Prednisone 5 mg p.o. on even days, 10 mg p.o. on odd days, MVI with minerals one tablet p.o. q. day, Thiamine 50 mg p.o. b.i.d., Bicitra 15 ml p.o. b.i.d., Nephrocaps one tablet p.o. q. day, Cyclosporine 125 mg p.o. in the morning and 100 mg p.o. in the afternoon, Insulin sliding scale, Cellcept 1,000 mg p.o. b.i.d., and Prempro 0.625/0.25 mg p.o. q. day. Her triglycerides were checked during the hospitalization and found to be very high in the 1,500 range, so she was taken off Simvastatin and started on Gemfibrozil. She was discharged in stable condition the next day.

Ms. Heit is a 67-year-old female who received a heart transplant in March 2006 and was transferred from an outside hospital after sustaining a right hip fracture. On admission, her plain films revealed a nondisplaced right femoral fracture and her EKG showed sinus tachycardia. She was given MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION: Neoral 150 mg b.i.d., prednisone 8 mg daily, CellCept 1500 mg b.i.d., Protonix 20 mg daily, Pravachol 40 mg daily, diltiazem 360 mg daily, multivitamin one daily, magnesium oxide 400 mg daily, calcium and vitamin D 1800 mg daily, Fosamax weekly on Mondays, Colace 100 mg daily, Zocor 20 mg daily, Dulcolax 10 mg as needed for constipation, vitamin E 400 units daily, and vitamin C 500 mg b.i.d. She had a history of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, which was treated with fondaparinux daily prior to the procedure and then discharged on aspirin for four weeks postprocedure. She underwent a dynamic hip screw procedure which was uncomplicated and allowed her to begin weightbearing on postoperative day 1, and was transfused with 2 units of packed red blood cells on the day after surgery with appropriate hematocrit rise. She received additional 2 units of packed red blood cells prior to discharge. DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS: Tylenol 650 mg every four hours as needed for pain, Protonix 40 mg daily, Pravachol 40 mg daily, Neoral (cyclosporine) 150 mg b.i.d., diltiazem extended release 360 mg daily, Caltrate plus D one tablet daily, Neoral (cyclosporine) 150 mg b.i.d., diltiazem extended release 360 mg daily, Fosamax 70 mg weekly, Dulcolax p.r. 10 mg as needed for constipation, and oxycodone 5-10 mg every six hours as needed for pain. She will continue her home medication regimen, be maintained on aspirin 325 mg for four weeks to prevent clot formation postsurgery, and take oxycodone as needed for pain. She has a followup appointment with orthopedic surgery, and will also be closely followed by transplant clinic in the Angeles with a walker and should continue aspirin 325 mg daily.

Has the patient had multiple vitamin e prescriptions

A 59 year-old woman with metastatic breast cancer and a history of pulmonary embolism presented with symptoms of fatigue, lethargy, tachycardia and fever. CXR showed LLL opacity, LUL opacity and hilar fullness on the right with prominent bronchi (?cuffing) and vertebral fractures. She was admitted with bacteremia on 7/0/2006 and treated with whole brain radiotherapy in March 2006 and with weekly Taxol. Restaging studies showed stable visceral disease but progression of bony metastatic disease, so in January 2006, she initiated a second-line Navelbine therapy. At the ER, she was administered 1UPRBC, 1L NS, Levofloxacin 500 mg IV, and placed CVP~20. Her blood pressure systolic initially 120s but decreased to 90s (MAPS>70), and norepinephrine was administered.

This is a 61-year-old gentleman with severe pulmonary hypertension secondary to chronic PEs, OSA, gout, bilateral hip replacements who presents with two falls in the past two days. He was compliant with his medication regimen and denies dietary indiscretion. He was on his beta-blocker and anticoagulated on Coumadin with an INR goal of 2.5, initially being supertherapeutic with a daily goal of negative 500 to 1 L with IV Lasix once or twice a day as needed, his home dose being 160 mg p.o. His baseline room air oxygen saturation was 90-93% and he should use oxygen as treatment for his pulmonary hypertension and be provided with oxygen at home. He was treated for his hip pain initially with oxycodone which was changed to Dilaudid for better pain control, and he should be changed back to his home dose of oxycodone when discharged. He also has a history of gout which was exacerbated with diuresis and he is on his home doses of allopurinol and colchicine, Indocin being added and he should receive a total of three days of Indocin. Tylenol and narcotics as previously described can be used to help with his gouty pain. His GI regimen includes Nexium at home and Prilosec while an inpatient, and he should be switched back to Nexium when discharged from rehabilitation. His lab results on discharge include a creatinine of 1, hematocrit of 53.1 and INR of 2.3, potassium being 3.9 and magnesium being 2.0.

The patient, a 77 year old woman, was admitted with complaint of urinary frequency and AMS. She has a possible allergy to Penicillins with a reaction of RASH and cannot tolerate floroquinolones. She was prescribed ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID 81 MG PO QD, LISINOPRIL 10 MG PO QD Starting Today ( 6/25 ), KCL SLOW RELEASE PO ( ref # 761602437 ), TOPROL XL ( METOPROLOL SUCCINATE EXTENDED RELEASE ) 100 MG PO BID HOLD IF: hr<55 , sbp<95, LANTUS ( INSULIN GLARGINE ) 19 UNITS QAM SC QAM Starting Today ( 6/17 ), WARFARIN SODIUM 5 MG PO QPM Starting ROUTINE , 20:00 ( Standard Admin Time ), ROSIGLITAZONE 2 MG PO QD, FUROSEMIDE 20 MG PO BID Starting Today ( 6/25 ) PRN Other:LE edema, SIMVASTATIN 10 MG PO QHS, CEFPODOXIME PROXETIL 200 MG PO BID X 16 doses Starting Today ( 6/25 ) HOLD IF: rash, and DIGOXIN 0.125 MG PO QOD with Food/Drug Interaction Instruction to Give with meals. Her AFIB became tachy to 140's with an elevated troponin to 1.69 which rose to a max of 2.41 with no EKG changes and was rate controlled and started on Levofloxacin. She was given 2 doses of vancomycin to cover potential staph infection and had an adenosine MIBI that showed no perfusion defects. Her INR was increasing due to the levofloxacin effect and was switched to ceftriaxone consistant with blood culture succeptabilities. Follow up blood cultures on 0/27 demostrated gram positive cocci in clusters and antibiotics were d/c'd after repeat cultures were negative. Her cardiac workup included an echocardiogram with RV dialation and wall akinesis with apical sparing , a new finding since last echo in '03. We have altered cardiac medications for better rate control by cancelling the coreg( carvedelol ) and Norvasc( amilodipine ) and replacing them with a blood pressure medication, Toprol XL( Metoprolol XL ) to better control the rate of her atrial fibrillation and the digoxin was also added for heart rate control. The patient was discharged in good condition and was given instructions to take the full course of antibiotics which cover the next 8days, to take medications with meals or on empty stomach and to avoid high Vitamin-K containing foods, to call PCP with any changes in urinary symptoms, or fever >101.0, return to ER if any changes in mental status, chest pain, SOB, or syncope, and follow-up with PCP within the next week with INR and digoxin levels. Do not use lasix unless necessary and contact PCP if using more than 1-2 times per week due to possible toxicity with digoxin use.

What treatments has patient been on for potential staph infection. in the past

Mr. Mauras is a 72-year-old man with history of stable angina, type 2 diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, former smoking history, and history of seizure disorder with cataracts. He had occasional anginal symptoms prior to discharge and took about two nitroglycerins per week. Over the past week, he had escalating chest pain requiring one nitroglycerin per day. The pain was relieved by rest and nitroglycerin. One week prior to admission, his digoxin was stopped and his amiodarone was decreased. His Plavix was stopped and his Coumadin was held. On the morning of admission, he had chest pain and received Lopressor, Enalapril, Lovenox treatment dose and a Plavix load in the ED. He was found to have flash pulmonary edema and in atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response and was taken back to the catheterization lab and given four stents to his saphenous vein graft, OM1 with good resolution of his symptoms. He was transferred to the floor and was given an amiodarone load given his ejection fraction and increased ectopy on telemetry. His troponin had been trended down to the 0.2s by discharge and his beta-blocker and ACE inhibitor were titrated to heart rate and blood pressure. Prior to anticipated discharge, he re-developed flash pulmonary edema secondary to atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response and was re-loaded with digoxin. He was started on Mucomyst precath with good effect, had a difficult-to-place Foley, and was started on Flomax with good effect. His creatinine on discharge was 1.2, his metformin was held, and he was continued on Lantus with sliding scale insulin. He was given three units of packed red blood cells given his history of CAD and was prescribed with Amiodarone 200 mg, Enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg, Librium 10 mg, Colace 200 mg, Ferrous gluconate 324 mg, Lasix 40 mg, Nitroglycerin one tab, Dilantin 100 mg, Senna two tabs, Coumadin 3 mg, Lipitor 80 mg, Flomax 0.4 mg, Plavix 75 mg, Lantus 14 units, Metformin 500 mg, Ranitidine 150 mg, Digoxin 0.125 mg, Enalapril 10 mg, and Atenolol 50 mg, with follow-up appointments with his PCP, Dr. Kelley Hernon of Electrophysiology on 7/8/05, and Dr. Daft on 9/20/05, and INR checked on 8/4/05 or 7/8/05 with Coumadin adjusted accordingly.

Was the patient ever prescribed flomax

This 79-year-old male was admitted for coronary artery disease and aortic stenosis with a history of hypertension, dyslipidemia, chest radiation, prostate cancer, osteoporosis, and urinary incontinence. A CABG x3 with a LIMA to the LAD, a saphenous vein graft to the PDA, and a saphenous vein graft to the obtuse marginal was done on 10/3/06, while the aortic valve was only found to be mildly stenotic. Postoperatively, he was transferred to the Intensive Care Unit in a stable fashion, and was found to have an inferior lateral ischemia on EKG, which was resolved after cardiac catheterization. He was weaned off pressors and extubated, and started on Lopressor and gentle diuresis. On postoperative day #3, his Norvasc was started and he was transferred to the Step-Down Unit. On postoperative day #4, he was slightly tachycardic with ambulation and his beta-blockers were titrated up, with PA and chest x-ray looking good. He was started on empiric levofloxacin for questionable pneumonia and found suitable for discharge on postoperative day #5, however, he had isolated temperature and his white count was found to be trending and he was hypertensive. A positive blood culture was found from when he had been in the Intensive Care Unit and he was continued on levofloxacin, while he was also started on vancomycin due to left leg cellulitis at the knee. On postoperative day #10, a fluid collection was found above the knee to the mid calf, and he underwent a drainage and irrigation of his left lower extremity saphenous vein donor site. After this procedure, he was transferred back to the Step-Down Unit and was discharged on postoperative day #5.

Why has the patient been prescribed levofloxacin

This is a 48-year-old female who was admitted to the hospital with pneumonia and Klonopin overdose two days prior to admission, having recently completed an antibiotic course at Dale Skin Sonmu Medical Center for pneumonia. She has not taken her lisinopril or methadone in the past. Upon admission, her respiratory rate was 18, O2 saturation 95% on 8 liters of oxygen and she was aggressively given fluids and was started on Levophed for blood pressure support. Her EKG was notable for low voltage on the precordial leads and her saturations were in the high 80's. She was given vancomycin, Levaquin and gentamicin and 3 liters of normal saline. She had a mild troponin elevation on admission, likely secondary to RV strain, and was given a heparin drip with a goal of 60 to 80. Her second PECT showed a small PE to the right upper lobe, but it was not large enough to explain her dramatic presentation. She had severe hypotension and was on two pressors, which were weaned off of on 4/15/06, but had an episode of hypotension when her BiPAP was started. She was given a little bit of low dose dobutamine and then weaned off of that on 3/6/06. She had an elevated eosinophilia on presentation and it was 4% on admission and increased to 8% on 4/21/06. She was empirically covered on admission with vancomycin, levofloxacin and gentamicin. Her antibiotics were given again on 10/16/06 and on 11/13/06. She did complain of bladder spasms while having the Foley in place and was started on Ditropan. She had multiple negative urinalysis and urine cultures. Once the Foley was discontinued, she was able to void and she stopped having bladder spasms. She was started on Monistat for a yeast infection. She did have a history of severe hypertension and her blood pressures were stable, but not high enough to withstand on additional blood pressure lowering medication. It was discussed with her PCP that she perhaps will need this medication restarted as an outpatient. She also had a normal increase in her cortisol level with ACTH stimulation. Her Coumadin was initially given 10, then a dose of 5 and then 2 dose of 7.5. We are continuing her methadone, which has been switched from 20 mg p.o. daily to 10 mg p.o. b.i.d. She was also given a little bit of Ativan while in-house to help with her agitation and anxiety and was initially given a little bit of Haldol, but that was discontinued on 8/4/06 and there was no additional need for that. She was on unfractionated heparin for her presumed PE until 6/15/06 and then changed to Lovenox in the morning and her methadone has been switched from 20 mg p.o. daily to 10 mg p.o. b.i.d. She was given a little bit of low dose lisinopril while in-house. Her blood pressures were stable, but her weight at that time was 157 kg.

Is the patient currently or have they ever taken unfractionated heparin

Ms. Elter is an 83-year-old Spanish-speaking female with history of CAD, distant three-vessel CABG, CRI, NSTEMI in 4/20 and type II diabetes who presented to the ED with PND, dyspnea on exertion, and chest heaviness with no fevers or chills and no sick contacts, and EMS had given her Lasix and Nitrospray. She was briefly on a nonrebreather mask and responded to 80 mg of IV Lasix, with her potassium level reaching 5.8 and Kayexalate administered. Her medications included aspirin, metoprolol, allopurinol, valsartan, glipizide, Lipitor, and nifedipine, with her oxygen saturation eventually reaching the high 90s on a couple of liters of oxygen and her chest x-ray full set negative. She was treated with aspirin, beta-blockers, and statin for coronary artery disease, experienced a CHF flare with an elevated BNP which was managed with Lasix and Diuril, and her after load was reduced with ARB and her previous home calcium channel blocker was weaned off. She had a transient new atrial fibrillation and ventricular ectopy which resolved spontaneously, and was placed on humidified room air with nasal saline sprays and Afrin due to her coronary artery disease. She was transfused a total of 3 units to keep her hematocrit greater than 30 and Coumadin was initially started given her new onset of atrial fibrillation, but ultimately only aspirin was given after consideration of risks versus benefits. She had some constipation which was relieved with stool softeners and the patient received a PPI. Her DM-2 was managed with regular sliding scale insulin with good blood sugar control and her glipizide was held given her worsening creatinine clearance, and her allopurinol was changed to q.72h. from q.o.d. due to the creatinine clearance and she had some left heel and foot pain thought to be secondary to gout, which improved at the time of discharge. Her hematocrit dropped from 29 to 25, her guaiac was negative on the 3/20/04, and she was sent home with VNA support to follow up on her weights and fluid status and with home physical therapy. Her medications at the time of discharge included Lasix 20 mg p.o. q.d., Lipitor 80 mg p.o. q.d., Metoprolol sustained release 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d. p.r.n. for constipation, Allopurinol 100 mg p.o. q.72h., Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., and Valsartan 160 mg p.o. q.d.

The patient is a 60 year-old woman with adult onset diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and elevated cholesterol admitted with chest pain, bradycardia, and decreased blood pressure. When her blood pressure is elevated, she takes Nifedipine and the pain became three to four out of ten, so she took Cardizem without relief and called EMS. The pain was relieved with the EMTs gave nitroglycerin times two and they found her to have blood pressure of 190/100, heart rate 76, and normal sinus rhythm. They gave two nitrospray, blood pressure decreased to 150/80, heart rate 76, and after two minutes in the vehicle, she had sinus bradycardia at 30-40, blood pressure 120/80. She was given 0.5 mg of Atropine times one without any affect and brought to the hospital with a systolic blood pressure of 100, then suddenly she had bradycardia with heart rate of 30-40 and systolic blood pressure of 75. She was given intravenous fluids and Atropine 0.5 mg times one which increased her blood pressure systolic to 100 and her heart rate increased to 60. On admission, she was given Nifedipine 10 mg p.r.n. for elevated blood pressure, Lasix 20 mg q. day, Glucotrol 15 mg q. day, Cardizem 300 mg q. day, Coumadin 3.75 mg q. day, Colace 100 mg b.i.d., and Iron 325 mg q. day.

Mr. Neilsen is a 59-year-old morbidly obese man with a history of morbid obesity, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, ejection fraction of 40 percent, obstructive sleep apnea on continuous positive airway pressure, history of cellulitis, and presenting with progressive lower extremity weakness bilaterally and urinary incontinence. On admission, EMG showed decreased recruitment in the tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius bilaterally, and he was treated with seven days of Bactrim for resolution of his incontinence and he was not anticoagulated at the moment though Coumadin should be a consideration given his risk of stroke. Two weeks prior to admission he noted some lumbar and sacral pain, nonradiating, worse while moving his right leg, and increasing urinary frequency without burning or urinary incontinence. On the night of admission, while getting up from a chair, his right leg gave out and he fell to the floor without injury or head trauma. His laboratory data on admission showed sodium 140, potassium 4.5, chloride 102, bicarbonate 26, BUN 20, creatinine 0.9, glucose 101, white blood cell count of 9 with 76 polys, 4 bands, hematocrit 37.6 and platelet count of 236, and urinalysis showed 3+ blood and positive leukocyte esterase with 15-20 white blood cells, one plus bacteria and one plus squamous cells. He was started on a trial of Lasix p.o. q day to decrease his peripheral edema to help him with rehabilitation, and he was instructed to apply Nystatin powder for his pannus rash. His medications on discharge included Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q day, Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Lasix 40 mg p.o. q a.m., Indomethacin 25 mg p.o. t.i.d. p.r.n. pain, Lisinopril 15 mg p.o. q day, multivitamin one tablet p.o. q day, Bactrim DS one tablet p.o. t.i.d., Tamsulosin 0.4 mg p.o. q day, and Miconazole 2% topical powder b.i.d., and he was discharged to rehabilitation care for leg strengthening in a stable condition.

Ms. Hesby is a 36-year-old woman with very poorly controlled type 1 diabetes, end-stage renal disease, right eye blindness, lower extremity neuropathy, gastroparesis, and a history of extensive infections. She presented to Path Community Hospital with a right thigh burn and infection, and was given a prescription for antibiotics, 20 units of IV insulin, 500 mL normal saline boluses, and several 250 mL boluses, as well as 2 amps of calcium gluconate, Kayexalate, albuterol nebs, and Augmentin and IV vancomycin for her right thigh cellulitis. For long-term management, she was prescribed Lantus 24 units subcu each night, NovoLog sliding scale, PhosLo, Nephrocaps, Vitamin D, Sevelamer 1600 t.i.d., Toprol 100 mg p.o. daily, Lisinopril 5 mg p.o. daily, Plavix 75 mg p.o. daily, Keppra 500 mg p.o. b.i.d., Flovent two puffs b.i.d., Albuterol p.r.n., Baclofen 5 mg p.o. t.i.d., and Ambien 10 mg p.o. at bedtime p.r.n. The patient was admitted with a diagnosis of Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) and was stabilized in the MICU on an insulin waves. She was then transitioned to NPH and finally to Lantus 24 units subcu and her hypertension is being managed on her home dose of Lopressor 25 q.i.d. and switched to Captopril, which is being titrated. Her area of cellulitis has completely resolved, and if she becomes acidotic, the patient can be managed with sodium bicarbonate and D5W in small boluses. The patient is taking her Nephrocaps and sevelamer and is receiving prophylaxis with heparin 5000 units subcu t.i.d., however she has consistently refused her heparin. Of note, on the night of 1/26/06, the patient complained of severe cramping, right lower quadrant pain, which is new. She noted this pain has increased rapidly in the setting of diarrhea. Several C. diff studies, which were sent recently have been negative and the patient has had no blood in her diarrhea. Presumed cause is Augmentin, which has been stopped. The patient has continued to eat freely and is passing diarrhea despite her complaints of 10/10 severe abdominal pain. A CT scan of her abdomen was ordered, but she refused to take oral or IV contrast. The results of this CT scan are pending and will be followed up by the new medical team.

Mr. Sherburn is a 58 yo man with a history of Hodgkins lymphoma who underwent radiation therapy, hypertension, and non-Q wave MI and was admitted to LMC for cardiac catheterization and observation s/p cath. During the procedure, a chronic total occlusion of the proximal L.circumflex artery with collaterals to distal vessels was observed, as well as an RCA ostial discrete 45% lesion. Mr. Muthart tolerated the procedure well without adverse event or complication at the groin site, remaining afebrile, with stable electrolytes, hematocrit and WBC. EKG was without evidence of acute ischemia and cardiac enzymes remained flat, with his SBP running in the 90's to low 100's and his Lisinopril was decreased as a result. Imdur was also added to his cardiac regimen. The discharge medications were ALBUTEROL INHALER 2 PUFF INH QID PRN SOB, ECASA ( ASPIRIN ENTERIC COATED ) 325 MG PO QD, ATENOLOL 50 MG PO QD Food/Drug Interaction Instruction, LISINOPRIL 5 MG PO QD, NITROGLYCERIN 1/150 ( 0.4 MG ) 1 TAB SL Q5 MIN X 3 PRN Chest Pain HOLD IF: SBP&lt;[ ], TERBUTALINE ( TERBUTALINE SULFATE ) 5 MG PO QID, AZMACORT ( TRIAMCINOLONE ACETONIDE ) 2 PUFF INH QID, KEFLEX ( CEPHALEXIN ) 500 MG PO QID, and IMDUR ( ISOSORBIDE MONONIT.( SR ) ) 30 MG PO QD Food/Drug Interaction Instruction.

This 90+-year-old male with a complex past medical history including CAD, CHF, AF and diabetes mellitus presented to the SICU for removal of chronically MRSA-infected mesh from prior abdominal surgery. He was intubated with etomidate, succinylcholine and kept sedated with Versed and fentanyl. He received intraoperative vancomycin and levofloxacin as well as 2200 mL of lactated Ringer's. In an attempt to reverse anticoagulation, one unit of FFP was begun but then aborted due to hypotension, which resolved with epinephrine injection, likely due to transfusion reaction. Another unit of FFP was administered, with platelets also given at the request of the Plastic Surgery Team in light of aspirin and Plavix, which were continued due to the patient's cardiac stents. Despite bolus Lasix, the patient did develop CHF with symptomatic pulmonary edema and increased oxygen requirement, concomitantly becoming delirious. He developed hypertension refractory to beta-blockade, calcium channel blockers and IV ACE inhibitors, and was thus placed on a nitroglycerin drip, a furosemide drip with ginger blood product resuscitation to address bleeding and an elevated INR, responding well to this regimen and aggressive pulmonary toilet. The patient was advanced to clear liquids, on medications including Amiodarone 200 mg p.o. daily, Calcium, Colace 100 mg by mouth t.i.d., Coumadin alternating doses of 4 mg and 3 mg, Diltiazem CD 360 mg p.o. daily, Aspirin 81 mg p.o. daily, Folate 1 mg p.o. daily, Lisinopril 10 mg p.o. daily, Metamucil p.r.n., Clopidogrel 75 mg p.o. daily, Potassium, Protonix 40 mg p.o. daily, Simvastatin 80 mg p.o. daily, Synthroid 25 mcg p.o. daily, Thiamine 100 mg p.o. daily, Metoprolol SR 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Zyprexa 2.5 mg at bedtime p.r.n., and Vancomycin for MRSA-infected mesh. He does experience more significant delirium with morphine and less so with sparing Dilaudid p.r.n., and Haldol is written p.r.n. as needed. Weaning off nitroglycerin drip, nitro paste added, hematocrit 25%, one unit of packed red blood cells with Lasix and potassium to be given, RISS, and PICC line consult ordered for anticipated long-term vancomycin. Services following the patient include Medicine, Dr. Harcar, patient's PCP, Cardiology, Dr. Pagliari, and Plastic Surgery, Dr. Dunshie. Patient anticipated to be transferred to the floor on 9/28/06.

The patient is a 55 year old male with a history of noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus, a significant heavy smoking history, and a family history of cardiac disease who was admitted with chest pain and worsening right great toe ulceration with lymphangitis. He had completed a course of Cipro and was given a dose of oxacillin before being sent to Sidecrestso Community Hospital for IV antibiotics and work-up. MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION included Tylenol #3 and glyburide 10 mg p.o. q. day. No known drug allergies. He was then treated for the right toe cellulitis with IV antibiotics of gentamicin and Clindamycin, and was placed on atenolol with the dose increased to 75 mg p.o. q. day. On discharge, the patient was switched from Nitropaste to Isordil 10 mg p.o. t.i.d., and his glyburide was increased to 20 mg p.o. q. day. MEDICATIONS ON DISCHARGE included atenolol, aspirin, 325 mg po q day, Glyburide, 20 mg po q day, Tylenol #3, two tablets po x one p.r.n. for pain, and sublingual nitroglycerin, p.r.n. The patient was discharged to home and was to follow-up with Dr. Netti as an outpatient and with Dr. Frasso of AMH Cardiology.

Has the patient had cipro in the past

The patient is a 70 year old white female with a history of long standing hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and history of tobacco use who presented upon transfer from Ra Memorial Hospital with chief complaint of post MI unstable angina. She had a history of long standing hypertension and had chest pain in the past including at least one previous episode of rule out MI. She was admitted on 22 of April to Hen Mo Gardensworth Sent Hospital with signs and symptoms consistent with acute MI and apparently received salvage therapy with IV Streptokinase and TPA. On 0 of August, the patient presented to Cooker View Home Hospital with an episode of heavy substernal chest pressure relieved with SL and topical nitrates, and her EKG showed no worrisome ischemic changes. She was transferred to CNMC on IV Heparin, IV Nitroglycerin at 140 micrograms per minute, IV Heparin drip, Lopressor, aspirin one a day, beta blockade and aspirin. She had several episodes of typical substernal chest pain with minimal exertion that were relieved with SL Nitroglycerin, and additional episodes of chest pain that were low in intensity but prolonged, each of these requiring several Nitroglycerins and antacids to be relieved. It was felt that the chest pain was treated by the addition of a calcium channel blocker, and her admission labs showed hematocrit 34.2, WBC 6.7, platelets 159,000, PTT 50.0 on IV Heparin. Postcatheterization, the patient showed mild hypertension which was treated by the addition of a calcium channel blocker, and she was also diuresed for fluid overload. Prior to discharge, she had two additional episodes of chest pain that were low in intensity but prolonged. Each of these required several Nitroglycerins and antacids to be relieved. It was felt that the chest pain was unlikely to be cardiac in origin and more likely represented either GI symptomatology or an anxiety reaction. The patient underwent an exercise treadmill test on the modified Bruce protocol which showed no evidence for ischemia. On discharge, she was prescribed Nifedipine XL 90 mg po q am, Lopressor 50 mg po b.i.d., Zantac 150 mg po q hs, aspirin 81 mg po q d, Serax 15 mg po q 6 h or q hs prn, and Nitroglycerin 1/150 grain q 5 minutes x 3 SL prn chest pain. She was discharged to home and is to follow up with her primary care physician, Dr. Gayle Demeritt, and her cardiologist, Dr. Mark Willians, at ACSH. ALLERGIES: Penicillin which causes anaphylaxis. The patient is a 70 year old white female who had a history of long standing hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and history of tobacco use and presented upon transfer from Ra Memorial Hospital with chief complaint of post MI unstable angina. She was admitted on 22 of April to Hen Mo Gardensworth Sent Hospital and apparently received salvage therapy with IV Streptokinase and TPA. On 0 of August, she presented to Cooker View Home Hospital with an episode of heavy substernal chest pressure relieved with SL and topical nitrates, and her EKG showed no worrisome ischemic changes. Upon transfer to CNMC, she was without chest pain and was given IV Nitroglycerin at 140 micrograms per minute, IV Heparin drip, Lopressor, aspirin one a day, beta blockade and aspirin. She had several episodes of typical substernal chest pain with minimal exertion that were relieved with SL Nitroglycerin, and additional episodes of chest pain that were low in intensity but prolonged, each of these requiring several Nitroglycerins and antacids to be relieved. Her admission labs showed hematocrit 34.2, WBC 6.7, platelets 159,000, PTT 50.0 on IV Heparin. Postcatheterization, the patient showed mild hypertension which was treated by the addition of a calcium channel blocker, and she was also diuresed for fluid overload. Prior to discharge, she had two additional episodes of chest pain that were low in intensity but prolonged. Each of these required several Nitroglycerins and antacids to be relieved. It was felt that the chest pain was unlikely to be cardiac in origin and more likely represented either GI symptomatology or an anxiety reaction.

MEDS RECORD

Ms. Dube is a 58-year-old female with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and a history of a left circumflex coronary artery stent placed three months prior to admission. She presented to the emergency room with left jaw pain, which was relieved with three sublingual nitroglycerin and later with Percocet to which she got some relief. She was started on Lovenox 1 mg per kg subcutaneously b.i.d., beta-blocker, Zocor and ACE inhibitor, t.i.d., glucophage 500 mg b.i.d., Celexa 40 mg p.o. q.d., Zestril 2.5 mg q.d., atenolol 25 mg p.o. q.d., Lipitor 20 mg p.o. q.h.s., Plavix. The patient's Lovenox was reversed with protamine and her hematoma continued to expand overnight, so she received one unit of fresh frozen plasma as well as a third unit of packed red blood cells, resulting in a total of five units of packed red blood cells due to blood loss secondary to her anticoagulation with Lovenox, Plavix, aspirin and a possible STONDE MEDICAL CENTER trial drug. Her headache was treated with Tylenol to which it did not respond and her discharge medications included aspirin 81 mg p.o. q day, Klonopin 0.5 mg p.o. q.h.s., and her home medications of Zocor, Lopressor, captopril, Celexa, Klonopin. Vascular surgery was consulted due to concern for developing compartment syndrome and she was restarted on aspirin. Her head CT was negative for bleeding and she was discharged home on March, 2003 with instructions to follow up with her primary care physician.

Mr. Lewter is a 65-year-old gentleman with a history of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and peripheral vascular disease who presented to Tci Prosamp Memorial Hospital on 5/1/06 with unstable angina. EKG revealed sinus tachycardia with a new incomplete left bundle-branch block and downsloping 1-1.5 mm ST depressions in V3 through V6 and 1 mm depression in aVL. Cardiac catheterization revealed an ostial 100% stenosis in the left circumflex coronary artery, a proximal 60% stenosis and a mid 50% stenosis in the left anterior descending coronary artery, a proximal 80% stenosis and a mid 60% stenosis in the right coronary artery, a right dominant circulation, an ejection fraction of 30%, and collateral flow from the second diagonal to the third marginal in the right posterior left ventricular branch to the second marginal, as well as left ventricular hypokinesis and severe inferior and apical. The patient was not heparinized due to the fact that he was on Coumadin for peripheral vascular disease with a therapeutic INR. On 9/18/06, the patient underwent coronary artery bypass graft x3 with left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending coronary artery, a sequential graft and a vein graft connecting from the aorta to the second obtuse marginal coronary artery and then to the left ventricular branch. He was on medications including Lopressor 37.5 mg b.i.d., aspirin 325 mg daily, Colace 100 mg b.i.d., Pepcid 20 mg IV q.12h., insulin sliding scale, atorvastatin 80 mg daily, glipizide, Avandia, Zestril, metformin, meclizine, lactulose, vitamin C, Protonix, Niaspan, Neurontin, Zincate, and Coumadin for peripheral vascular disease. The patient was started on oral medication of glipizide 5 mg and was covered with a NovoLog sliding scale, was transfused 3 units of packed red blood cells, re-started on Coumadin for his reinsertion, and was started on Flomax 0.4 mg once a day. He had some urinary retention postoperatively and did require Foley catheter placement. He was discharged on Enteric-coated aspirin 81 mg QD, Colace 100 mg b.i.d. while taking Dilaudid, Lasix 40 mg QD x3 doses, glipizide 5 mg daily, Dilaudid 2-4 mg every three hours p.r.n. pain, lisinopril 2.5 mg daily, Niferex 150 mg b.i.d., Toprol-XL 150 mg QD, Lipitor 80 mg daily, Flomax 0.4 mg QD, potassium chloride slow release 10 mEq QD x3 doses with Lasix and Coumadin QD per INR result, and the patient will receive 4 mg of Coumadin this evening for his reinsertion and was instructed to remain on his Flomax until that time. Mr. Jana was discharged to rehab in stable condition and will follow up with his cardiologist Dr. Reuben Duttinger in one week, his heart failure cardiologist Dr. Wilton Durkee on 11/10/06 at 1:30 in the afternoon, and Urology Clinic at the Centsson Medical Center for his urinary retention in one week.

Ms. Hesby is a 36-year-old woman with very poorly controlled type 1 diabetes, end-stage renal disease, right eye blindness, lower extremity neuropathy, gastroparesis, and a history of extensive infections. She presented to Path Community Hospital with a right thigh burn and infection, and was given a prescription for antibiotics, 20 units of IV insulin, 500 mL normal saline boluses, and several 250 mL boluses, as well as 2 amps of calcium gluconate, Kayexalate, albuterol nebs, and Augmentin and IV vancomycin for her right thigh cellulitis. For long-term management, she was prescribed Lantus 24 units subcu each night, NovoLog sliding scale, PhosLo, Nephrocaps, Vitamin D, Sevelamer 1600 t.i.d., Toprol 100 mg p.o. daily, Lisinopril 5 mg p.o. daily, Plavix 75 mg p.o. daily, Keppra 500 mg p.o. b.i.d., Flovent two puffs b.i.d., Albuterol p.r.n., Baclofen 5 mg p.o. t.i.d., and Ambien 10 mg p.o. at bedtime p.r.n. The patient was admitted with a diagnosis of Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) and was stabilized in the MICU on an insulin waves. She was then transitioned to NPH and finally to Lantus 24 units subcu and her hypertension is being managed on her home dose of Lopressor 25 q.i.d. and switched to Captopril, which is being titrated. Her area of cellulitis has completely resolved, and if she becomes acidotic, the patient can be managed with sodium bicarbonate and D5W in small boluses. The patient is taking her Nephrocaps and sevelamer and is receiving prophylaxis with heparin 5000 units subcu t.i.d., however she has consistently refused her heparin. Of note, on the night of 1/26/06, the patient complained of severe cramping, right lower quadrant pain, which is new. She noted this pain has increased rapidly in the setting of diarrhea. Several C. diff studies, which were sent recently have been negative and the patient has had no blood in her diarrhea. Presumed cause is Augmentin, which has been stopped. The patient has continued to eat freely and is passing diarrhea despite her complaints of 10/10 severe abdominal pain. A CT scan of her abdomen was ordered, but she refused to take oral or IV contrast. The results of this CT scan are pending and will be followed up by the new medical team.

Patient Isaac Vanover, Jr., a 44-year-old man with a history of CAD s/p MI x2 4/14 with PCI, in stent thrombosis, and re-stenting, was admitted multiple times for CP with associated fatigue and SOB. He was placed on ECASA (Aspirin Enteric Coated) 325 MG PO QD, COLACE (Docusate Sodium) 100 MG PO BID PRN constipation, ENALAPRIL MALEATE 5 MG PO QAM HOLD IF: SBP<100, POTENTIALLY SERIOUS INTERACTION: POTASSIUM CHLORIDE & ENALAPRIL MALEATE (on order for KCL IMMEDIATE RELEASE PO (ref #56599393)), ATIVAN (Lorazepam) 1 MG PO TID Starting Today March PRN anxiety HOLD IF: RR<12 or pt is lethargic, NITROGLYCERIN 1/150 (0.4 MG) 1 TAB SL q5min x 3 PRN chest pain HOLD IF: SBP < 100, ZOLOFT (Sertraline) 100 MG PO QD, ZOCOR (Simvastatin) 20 MG PO QHS, PLAVIX (Clopidogrel) 75 MG PO QD, VIOXX (Rofecoxib) 25 MG PO QD, ZANTAC (Ranitidine HCl) 150 MG PO BID PRN dyspepsia, and ATENOLOL 25 MG PO QD with Food/Drug Interaction Instruction. Managed on Hep, TNG gtt, Plavix, ACE, B blocker, and Demerol, the pain recurred and he was transferred to BVH for cath. Cardiac catheterization on 8/18/02 showed non-obstructive CAD with LMCA, LAD, LCx, and RCA all OK. Pulmonary level of suspicion for PE is low, so D-dimer is sent and PE ruled out. Mild fluid overload was managed with Lasix to keep I/O's 500-1000cc neg. Pain could represent pericarditis, but psychiatric etiology for CP becomes more likely and psychiatric follow-up and treatment for anxiety and depression is recommended. WBC count increased 4/10 but no other sign/symptom of infection, CXR showed no infiltrates, and the patient was discharged stable with instructions to schedule an appointment with the primary doctor within 2-4 weeks, and if chest pain changes in character or is associated with new symptoms, the patient is to notify their doctor or call 911.

A 69-year-old female with a history of coronary disease status post prior myocardial infarction and surgery in 2002 presented to R.healt Medical Center Emergency Department on 10/9/05 with three days of chest pain and shortness of breath. Of note, she had been noncompliant with prior regimens and treatments and despite diuretics started three days by her primary care physician she reported new shortness of breath and chest pain at rest. An EKG in the emergency department revealed widespread ST depressions, prompting treatment for pulmonary edema with IV nitroglycerin, Lasix, aspirin, heparin, beta-blockers, and urgent transfer to the cath lab where coronary angiography revealed a left main coronary artery thrombosis with proximal and distal stenoses of about 70%, 50% of her LAD, and 60% of her first diagonal. After placement of an intraaortic balloon pump for further management and evaluation, the patient was transferred to the coronary care unit and her home medications included Aspirin, hydralazine, nitroglycerin, quinine, Norvasc, Lasix, Toprol, lisinopril, albuterol, and famotidine. Despite treatment, her condition continued to deteriorate, necessitating an exploratory laparotomy and emergent intubation, and ultimately, the family decided to withdraw care on 11/12/05 at 2:20 a.m., leading to her death at 2:24 a.m. the same day.

Has this patient ever tried levofloxacin

The patient is a 76-year-old female with a history of mitral regurgitation, congestive heart failure, recurrent UTIs, and uterine prolapse who presented with chills and hypotension and was admitted to the Medical ICU for treatment of septic shock. Mean arterial pressures were kept above 65 with Levophed and antibiotics were changed to penicillin 3 million units IV q.4h. and gentamicin 50 mg IV q.8h. An ATEE on 10/19 showed severe mitral regurgitation with posterior leaflet calcifications and linear density concerning for endocarditis, for which a PICC line was placed on 1/19 for a six-week course of penicillin 3 million units IV q.4h. and two-week course of gentamicin 50 mg IV q.8h. until 2/25. The patient was initially treated with Levophed for her hypotension until 11/0, and was placed on Levofloxacin and Vancomycin to treat Gram-positive cocci bacteremia and UTI. She was maintained on telemetry and was found to be a normal sinus rhythm with ectopy, including short once of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia. She was started on Lopressor 12.5 mg t.i.d. on 3/18, and this was increased to 25 mg b.i.d. at discharge, with her heart rates continuing to be between the 70s and the 90s, however, with less episodes of ectopy. Aspirin was given, and Lipitor was initially held for an initial transaminitis presumed to be secondary to shock liver. She had guaiac positive stools in the medical ICU, her hematocrit was stable around 33%, and her iron studies suggested anemia of chronic disease with possibly overlying iron deficiency. She had a normal random cortisol level of 35.3, and her Hemoglobin A1c was 6.5, so she was maintained thereafter only on insulin sliding scale and rarely required any coverage. The patient was kept on Lovenox and Protonix and her DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS include Aspirin 81 mg daily, iron sulfate 325 mg daily, gentamicin sulfate 50 mg IV q.8h. until 2/25 for a two-week course, penicillin G potassium 3 million units IV q.4h. until 0/12 for a six-week course, Lopressor 25 mg b.i.d., Caltrate plus D2 tablets p.o. daily, Lipitor 10 mg daily, and Protonix 40 mg daily. She was discharged to rehabilitation at Acanmingpeerra Virg Tantblu Medical Center in order to be able to get her antibiotic therapy, and her physicians will attempt to add the ACE back onto her medical regimen for better afterload reduction as her blood pressure tolerates, and potentially they will add her back on to the Lasix as well. She will require weekly lab draws to check her electrolytes and CBC while she is on the antibiotics.

What medicines have previously been tried for prophylaxis:

His baseline room air oxygen saturation was 90-93% and he should use oxygen as treatment for his pulmonary hypertension and be provided with oxygen at home. He was treated for his hip pain initially with oxycodone which was changed to Dilaudid for better pain control, and he should be changed back to his home dose of oxycodone when discharged. He also has a history of gout which was exacerbated with diuresis and he is on his home doses of allopurinol and colchicine, Indocin being added and he should receive a total of three days of Indocin. Tylenol and narcotics as previously described can be used to help with his gouty pain. His GI regimen includes Nexium at home and Prilosec while an inpatient, and he should be switched back to Nexium when discharged from rehabilitation. His lab results on discharge include a creatinine of 1, hematocrit of 53.1 and INR of 2.3, potassium being 3.9 and magnesium being 2.0.

He is being discharged to rehab with a followup with his cardiologist, Dr. Insco, and an appointment with Endocrinology.

Is there history of use of colchicine.

A 77-year-old woman presented to the ED with sudden onset of severe sharp chest pain, diaphoresis, and nausea; she was given nitro, hydralazine, SL nitro, and a nitro drip, and her pain was relieved. Cardiac catheterization showed no change from prior studies, but pulmonary hypertension was noted, and the patient was treated with heparin, ASA/Plavix (home dose), and uptitrated labetalol for BP control. A PE CT showed a pulmonary nodule, and the patient was discharged home on ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID 81 MG PO DAILY, LIPITOR (ATORVASTATIN) 80 MG PO BEDTIME, CALTRATE 600 + D (CALCIUM CARBONATE 1,500 MG (...) 2 TAB PO DAILY, PLAVIX (CLOPIDOGREL) 75 MG PO QAM, NEXIUM (ESOMEPRAZOLE) 20 MG PO QAM, LASIX (FUROSEMIDE) 40 MG PO QAM, INSULIN 70/30 HUMAN 40 UNITS SC BID, IMDUR ER (ISOSORBIDE MONONITRATE (SR)) 60 MG PO DAILY, LABETALOL HCL 400 MG PO Q8H Starting Tonight (2/22), LEVOXYL (LEVOTHYROXINE SODIUM) 112 MCG PO DAILY, OXYCODONE 5-10 MG PO Q4H PRN Pain, ALDACTONE (SPIRONOLACTONE) 12.5 MG PO QAM, and DIOVAN (VALSARTAN) 160 MG PO DAILY, with instructions to take medications consistently with meals or on an empty stomach and to assess blood sugars and titrate insulin as per her doctor's instructions. She was to monitor her electrolytes with VNA in 1 week, continue diabetes teaching, and work with her VNA for aggressive diabetes management, with follow up with her outpt PCP and endocrinologist for titration of insulin and optimization of insulin regimen, as well as a pulmonary consult to evaluate for primary pulmonary disease, and a repeat chest CT in 6-12 months to follow up the pulmonary nodule.

What is the current dose of aldactone ( spironolactone )

Ms. Dozois is a 64-year-old female admitted to MICU on 2/19/2005 for neutropenia, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and shortness of breath, requiring intubation and pressors. Her medical problems included severe COPD (on home O2 2 liters baseline sat below 90s), nonsmall cell lung cancer (diagnosed in 1999, status post multiple chemotherapy regimens, most recently ALIMTA from 1/29/2005 to 09), diabetes, obesity, and chronic renal insufficiency. Her MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION included Avapro, Lipitor, Decadron, ranitidine, Humalog, allopurinol, Alimta, Flonase, Vitamin D, B12, and Colace. She was initially treated with vancomycin, Levaquin, and aztreonam along with Flagyl empirically, and later changed to Levaquin only on 10/25/2005 to treat an enterococcal UTI and possible nosocomial pneumonia. She had thrombocytopenia and required multiple red blood transfusions to maintain her hematocrit greater than 26, though she was never hemodynamically unstable. She also required multiple platelet transfusions to keep her platelets greater than 30,000. She responded well initially to three units of packed red blood cells over 7/28/2005 and 09. However, in the setting of her GI bleed from a sloughing mucosa secondary to resolving neutropenic enteritis and recent chemo, she required multiple further RBC transfusions to keep her hematocrit greater than 30. Hematology was consulted secondary to suboptimal busted platelet levels status post transfusions, which was felt to be secondary to poor marrow response in the setting of recent chemo (workup was negative for other possible causes refractory thrombocytopenia, nystatin, allopurinol, were held given possible worsening of her thrombocytopenia). Surgery was consulted and she was managed conservatively with antibiotics initially and then with bowel rest. TPN was started on 4/21/2005, given her bowel rest for a neutropenic enteritis. She was changed to standing insulin on 10/25/2005 and her Lantus was up titrated along with sliding scale insulin to maintain blood sugars in the 80s to 120s. She is no longer neutropenic and was off Neupogen for one week and will stay and finish the 14-day course of Levaquin for coverage. On discharge her hematocrit and platelets were stable respectively at 29.8 and 46,000 and she had not required a transfusion in greater than 24 hours prior to discharge.

The patient is a 76-year-old male with a history of diabetes, hypertension, and CAD status post MI in 2000 who presented to the Emergency Room on 0/0/06 with an ST elevation MI. In the Cath Lab, he was given bicarb, placed on the epi drip, given Lasix and intubated. He was thought to aspirate at the time of intubation secondary to vomiting. A bedside echo revealed global hypokinesis with an EF of 35% and he was placed on a balloon pump, dopamine 16, amio 1, propofol 1, and Integrilin and brought to the floor. On the floor, his blood pressures were difficult to control and his wedge pressure readings indicated a wedge pressure of 47. His MAPs to keep them over 60 required max dopamine, max Levophed, epinephrine and dobutamine. He was arrested multiple times in V-Tach requiring CPR and cardioversion and was found to have in-stent thrombosis in his LAD which was aspirated and bare-metal stent was placed in his LAD and another stent was placed in his diag-2. His family was aware of his prognosis and was there at the time of his arrest at 3:30 in the morning. CPR was initiated and ACLS was done until the family decided to terminate the ACLS and the time of death was 3:47 a.m. on 0/0/06. The cause of death was thought to be cardiogenic shock secondary to ST elevation MI.

This 62-year-old white male with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease and ischemic cardiomyopathy was admitted with syncope. He had a history of anterior MI in 1980 and 1986 as well as a CABG in 1987 with LIMA to LAD, SVG to OM and SVG to PDA. Evaluation for heart transplant found cirrhosis by liver spleen scan which ruled out the possibility of transplant. His captopril dose was reduced from 37.5 mg to 25 mg t.i.d. with marked improvement in his energy and less dizziness. SVGs and a patent LIMA were found by Dobutamine radionuclide study, revealing inferior and inferolateral infarct. The patient's admission medications included Captopril 25 mg p.o. t.i.d., Isordil 40 mg p.o. t.i.d., Lipitor 20 mg p.o. q.d., NPH insulin 65 units subcu b.i.d., Xanax p.r.n., torsemide 120 mg p.o. q.a.m., torsemide 80 mg p.o. q.p.m., digoxin 0.125 mg p.o. q.d., Synthroid 250 mcg p.o. q.d., and Prozac 20 mg p.o. q.d.

The patient is a 74-year-old male with a history of acute inferior myocardial infarction in February of 1998 and total occlusion of the mid circumflex with fresh thrombus, complicated by postmyocardial infarction atrial fibrillation with Mobitz type I block, now admitted following syncopal episode. At admission, the laboratory data was significant for a creatinine of 1.6 and a potassium of 5.1. Blood count was normal, CK 39, and cardiac Troponin I 0.02. The patient was loaded on procainamide and MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION included Aspirin 325 mg q.d., Captopril 75 mg t.i.d., NPH insulin 18 q.a.m. and 8 q.p.m., Procainamide 500 mg t.i.d., and Simvastatin 20 mg once a day. The patient underwent evaluation for possible ischemic causes of an arrhythmia and was initially ruled out for myocardial infarction by serial enzymes and electrocardiograms. On standard Bruce protocol exercise tolerance test mibi, the patient went four minutes and thirty seconds, with maximum heart rate 121 and maximum blood pressure 210/85. He had typical chest pain for angina and chest tightness at peak exercise which was relieved with rest. The mibi images showed a mixed MI in basilar half of the inferior wall and mild peri-infarct ischemia in 3/20 segments in the right coronary artery territory. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY included Coronary artery disease, Diabetes mellitus on insulin, Hypertension, Status post bilateral knee replacements, asbestos exposure, and chronic renal insufficiency. The patient underwent cardiac catheterization which revealed a normal left main, left anterior descending artery with minor irregularities, left circumflex with 90 percent in-stent restenosis in proximal segment with a dominant left circumflex, and right coronary artery with a mid 50 percent lesion. He underwent successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty of the in-stent restenosis and was subsequently continued on aspirin. After the procainamide was held, the patient underwent electrophysiology study revealing normal sinus node recovery time, impaired AV nodal conduction, no inducible sustained ventricular tachycardia, and no inducible supraventricular tachycardia or atrial fibrillation. The patient was discharged to home with plans to follow-up with his primary cardiologist, perhaps with a Holter or event monitor and was prescribed Aspirin 325 mg q.d., Captopril 75 mg t.i.d., NPH Humulin insulin 18 units q.a.m. and 8 units q.p.m., nitroglycerin sublingual tablets, Vitamin E, and Simvastatin 20 mg q.h.s.

The patient is a 70-year-old woman with a history of Congestive Heart Failure due to diastolic dysfunction, Crohn's colitis, right breast carcinoma, diabetes mellitus, obstructive sleep apnea, gastroesophageal reflux disease, hypercholesterolemia, and osteoarthritis. She was admitted with volume overload for diuresis, having developed fluid retention with gradual worsening, shortness of breath and lower extremity edema. During the hospitalization, she was started on IV Lasix along with Zaroxolyn and oral torsemide, and heparin while starting anticoagulation with Coumadin. The patient was also treated for a urinary tract infection with IV levofloxacin, which was subsequently changed to p.o. cefixime which she completed a five-day course of. Her diabetes mellitus was maintained with insulin subcutaneous injections. Upon discharge she was prescribed Vitamin C 500 mg p.o. q.d., ferrous sulfate 300 mg p.o. q.d., insulin Lente subcutaneous 30 U q.h.s., insulin Regular subcutaneous 30 U q.h.s., Synthroid 200 mcg p.o. q.d., Zaroxolyn 5 mg p.o. q.a.m., tamoxifen 20 mg p.o. q.h.s., Vitamin E 400 U p.o. q.d., Coumadin 5 mg p.o. q.h.s., multivitamins 1 tablet p.o. q.d., Zocor 40 mg p.o. q.h.s., insulin 70/30 35 U subcu. q.a.m., Neurontin 300 mg p.o. q.a.m., 100 mg p.o. at 2:00 p.m., 300 mg p.o. q.h.s., Serevent inhaled 1 puff b.i.d., torsemide 100 p.o. q.a.m., Trusopt 1 drop b.i.d., Flonase nasal 1-2 sprays b.i.d., Xalatan 1 drop ocular q.h.s., Pulmicort inhaled 1 puff b.i.d., Celebrex 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Avandia 4 mg p.o. q.d., Hyzaar 12.5 mg/50 mg 1 tablet p.o. q.d., Nexium 20 mg p.o. q.d., potassium chloride 20 mEq p.o. b.i.d., Suprax 400 mg p.o. q.d. x4 days, albuterol inhaled 2 puffs q.i.d. p.r.n. wheezing, miconazole 2% powder applied topically on skin b.i.d. for itching. During the hospitalization, she responded with a brisk diuresis over the course of the admission, resulting in a 5.2 kg weight decline and estimated 15 liters of fluid removed. Atrial fibrillation was noted and anticoagulated with IV heparin and Coumadin, reaching a therapeutic INR of 2.5 within 4-5 days. Urinalysis showed evidence of an urinary tract infection with 20-30 white blood cells and was leukocyte esterase positive, and a urine culture grew out E. coli, which was subsequently determined to be resistant to levofloxacin and the patient had been started on IV levofloxacin and subsequently changed to p.o. cefixime. The patient completed a five-day course of p.o. cefixime while in the hospital and was discharged on that medicine to complete a 10-day course.

The patient was discharged in stable condition with follow up chest CT, check SPEP and PTH labs, and call the doctor for any chest pains, dizziness, trouble breathing, fevers >100.4, or any other concerns.

Has the patient ever had vit d

Mr. Lumadue is a 68-year-old man with significant cardiac history and vascular disease who came in with a chief complaint of hip pain after a mechanical fall. At that time, his hospital course was complicated by a non-Q wave MI, and Cardiology recommended medical management with Lopressor. An echocardiogram revealed an ejection fraction of 45%, and Dobutamine MIBI revealed a severe fixed perfusion defect in the inferoposterior and inferoseptal left ventricle with an ejection fraction of 26%. His medications included HCTZ 50 mg PO q.d., enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg PO q.d., Zestril 20 mg PO q.d., glyburide 5 mg PO q.d., multivitamins, and cough medicine PRN. Upon admission, his vital signs were afebrile, temperature 97.3, tachycardia, heart rate 106, blood pressure 162/77, oxygenation 94% on room air. X-rays of his left pelvis and femur revealed fracture of the left intertrochanter and subtrochanteric fracture with lesser trochanteric fracture intact by 3 cm, less than five degrees angulation. His femoral head was reduced. During his hospital course, the patient was started on a beta blocker, Ace inhibitor, and continued on an aspirin. He was aggressively diuresed with Lasix for diuresis and was treated with vancomycin, Flagyl, and levofloxacin for presumed aspiration pneumonia. He was continued on Lovenox 60 mg subcu. b.i.d. for prophylaxis against DVT post-hip surgery to continue for six months minimal followed by orthopedic surgery, and restarted on oral hypoglycemics prior to discharge in addition to sliding scale insulin.

The patient was a 46 year old woman with a history of asthma who was admitted with an asthma exacerbation. She had asthma since childhood and was never intubated nor previously treated with steroids. On admission, her physical examination showed wheezes bilaterally in the lungs. Her laboratory examination showed hematocrit of 41.6, white count of 9.66, and platelets of 199,000. She was treated with steroids, Solu-Medrol and then prednisone 60 milligrams orally, beta agonist, nebulizer and ampicillin, and continued her oral theophylline as she had been using as an outpatient. Her medications on admission were Theo-Dur 200 milligrams by mouth 3 times a day, prednisone 60 milligrams by mouth each day, Albuterol nebulizer, ampicillin 500 milligrams by mouth 3 times a day and Bronkosol. Allergies included sulfa drugs. She slowly improved with decreased wheezing in her breath sounds and increased peak flow from 300. She was discharged on May 3rd with all her usual medications, plus Keflex 500 milligrams by mouth 4 times a day and prednisone 50 milligrams by mouth each day, and was to follow up with her doctor.

Has the patient ever been on steroids

This is a 46-year-old morbidly obese female with a history of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus complicated by BKA on two prior occasions, who was admitted to the MICU with BKA, urosepsis, and a non-Q-wave MI. On presentation to the Emergency Department, her vital signs were notable for a blood pressure of 189/92, pulse rate of 120, respiratory rate of 20, and an O2 sat of 90%. She was given insulin, sublingual nitroglycerin x three, 4 mg of morphine, 5 mg of Lopressor, and started on a heparin drip and IV antibiotics, and admitted to the MICU for further management. Her past medical history included insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus for how many years, positive ethanol use, approximately one drink per week, and denied IV drug use or other illicit drug use. She was placed on an insulin drip and hydrated with intravenous fluids, with improvement, and eventually transitioned to NPH with insulin sliding scale coverage. Despite escalating her dose of NPH up to 65 U subcu b.i.d. on the day of discharge, she continued to have elevated blood sugars >200 and required coverage with insulin sliding scale. This issue will need to be addressed as an outpatient. She was also placed on cefotaxime for gram negative coverage, with both her blood cultures and urine cultures growing out E. coli which were sensitive to cefotaxime and gentamycin. As she initially continued to be febrile and continued to have positive blood cultures, one dose of gentamycin was given for synergy, and she was eventually transitioned to p.o. levofloxacin and will take 7 days of p.o. levofloxacin to complete a total 14-day course of antibiotics for urosepsis. She was initially placed on aspirin, heparin, and a beta blocker, and once her creatinine normalized, an ACE inhibitor was also added. Heparin was discontinued once the concern for PE was alleviated, and her beta blocker and ACE inhibitor were titrated up for a goal systolic blood pressure of <140 and a pulse of <70.

He had cardiac catheterization at Ryhoagberg Spisus Community Hospital on November, 1999 which demonstrated a 30% tapering lesion of the left main coronary artery, 70% proximal lesion of the left anterior descending coronary artery, 80% lesion distal to D1, 100% occlusion of his left circumflex and a 100% occlusion of his right coronary artery. On March, 1999, he underwent coronary artery bypass grafting times three with a left internal mammary artery to the left anterior coronary artery, saphenous vein graft to the aorta and a saphenous vein graft from the obtuse marginal to the aorta. His intraoperative course was uncomplicated and he was weaned to extubation and he was treated with stress steroids to prevent steroid withdrawal. He was taken back to the operating room for bleeding and was reintubated and was returned in good and stable condition to the intensive care unit on renal Dopamine. He was again extubated and was seen in consultation by the Gastrointestinal Service for a question of gastrointestinal bleed since there was a clot seen on the transesophageal echocardiogram probe at its withdrawal from his first surgery. The Gastrointestinal Service saw any evidence of any upper gastrointestinal bleed and he was maintained on H2 blockers. He was sent to the step down unit on routine postoperative day number two and his Captopril was increased for afterload reduction. He continued to improve and continued to have care for his respiratory situation with continued diuresis and nebulizer treatments and ambulation. He was discharged to the care of Dr. Lou Pineault at Potmend Rehabilitation Hospital, Moorlberl Street with medications including Prednisone 5 mg p.o. twice a day, Enteric coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. q. day, Zantac 150 mg p.o. twice a day, Niferex 150 mg p.o. twice a day, Atrovent nebulizer 0.5 mg four times a day, Timolol eye drops 0.5% one drop in both eyes twice a day, Atenolol 25 mg p.o. twice a day, Captopril 12.5 mg p.o. three times a day, Lasix 40 mg p.o. q. day, Potassium SR 20 mEq p.o. q. day, Simvastatin 40 mg p.o. q. day, and Ibuprofen 200-800 mg as needed for pain q.4-6h.
